Benfica manager, Jose Mourinho has told Gianluca Prestianni that his career with the club will be “over” if he is found guilty of racially abusing Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr.
Vinicius claimed that Prestianni made racist comments towards him, during the first match of their Champions League knockout round tie in Lisbon on February 17.
The 20-year-old has strongly denied the accusations but was still banned by UEFA for the second leg in Spain.
UEFA is still looking into the matter.
Mourinho himself got criticized for saying Vinicius had encouraged fans with his celebration after scoring.
But on Sunday, Mourinho said, “If my player does not respect these principles, which are mine and Benfica’s as well, then that player’s career with a coach named Jose Mourinho and at a club named Benfica will come to an end.”
